Problem description:

im trying to make so different spells' damage increase when you increase certain magic skill, spell's damage also increase(that means fire skill increase fire spells' damage, water skill increase water spells damage... fire skill is called fire), so im trying to make spell dmg equal to it's min damage + it's owner's skill, but i get undefined var error. also if some will say no ... in ..., then say what i should use

    Fireball
        icon = 'fireball.dmi'
        delay = 2
        length = 10
        dmg = 2 /*+ usr.fire*/ // wtf <.<

There is no usr at compile time, so that's just silly, you need to use a constant var. Add the owner's "fire" var to the Fireball's dmg when the obj is created:
    New(_loc,mob/_owner)
        if(_owner)
            src.dir = _owner.dir
            if(!src.loc) src.loc = get_step(_owner,_owner.dir)
            src.owner = _owner
            src.dmg += _owner.fire

well, now every spell will use fire skill(if fire skill is 10, then fireball will do 10 damage, fire blast will do 10 damage, water attacks will do 10 damage), but im trying to do different spells do different damage, not just use spell with your favorite icon

Fireball
        icon = 'fireball.dmi'
        delay = 2
        length = 10
        dmg = 2
        New(_loc,mob/_owner)
                ..()
                if(_owner)
                    src.dmg += _owner.fire

Override New() for each spell and add the right var or whatever.
